“It was a hoarder’s house,” Rogers said. “All sorts of materials were in the home that the cats were able to hide underneath. They were living in filth.”

Veterinarians in Westbury treated the cats for upper respiratory issues and administered necessary shots before they were released to the Pets4Luv Foundation, an SPCA partner and rescue group also based in Westbury. Rogers said the SPCA spent a total of $15,000 in medical bills for the cats.

Also up for adoption are four kittens born last week. Pets4Luv is housing all 25 animals until they find their forever homes.
